Aston Villa vs Norwich City Pre-Match Thread

Don't play Sanchez. He's shite.

It's probably a choice between him or Westwood.

For what it's worth, I would go with:

                               Bunn

Richards            Okore       Lescott        Cissokho

                                 Gana

                   Veretout            Westwood

                               Grealish

                     Kozak              Agbonlahor


Subs:- Guzan, Clark, Bacuna, Sanchez, Gil, Sinclair, Gestede

Think it is time to give Gil a rest and give Grealish a go.  We're still a midfielder and striker short.

It's going to piss down with rain all afternoon - ideal opportunity to have N'Zogbia on the bench and warming up on the touchline for 90 minutes

Wouldn't bother me for £65k a week. Let it rain.

If as seems likely Gabby is our only option up front then we are not scoring  0-0

We've got to get more of the midfield up supporting him, well in general, whoever plays up front. We attack so slowly as it is that we need to supplement it with numbers or we just aren't going to create anything. Saying that though the midfield also lacks pace so sending them forward means they struggle to get back. Oh well.

Kozak is injured.
Maybe Westwood and Sanchez fit.

[Lobsterboy]

We'll probably have to go with Bunn, Richards, Okore, Lescott, Cissokho, Gana, Westwood, Veretout, Gil, Sinclair, Agbonlahor Subs: Guzan, Clark, Richardson, Bacuna, Grealish, Lyden, Sellars

Not exactly screaming goals with that line up but then again none of our line ups have screamed this all season!

It is written, Villa win. St Gabby with a brace. The beginning of his and our redemption. Let's get off this road to perdition it's a bit shit I wonder what odds I can get? Gabby first scorer and villa 2-0.

Personally I've gone for Villa to score Under 1.5 in my acca at 1/2. It's a no lose situation, I either win my bet or Villa score 2+ and most likely win the game.

'Fun' fact: 4 times this season we've scored 2+ goals in a league game, well 2, W0 D1 L3.

there ya go, only Villa could be a worse team when they score goals than when they're not

Thought 'I wonder what the weather forecast is for tomorrow'. Pissing down from about 6am-10pm is the answer

You a knuckledraggers CCR?  You have not been hanging out with the Clampys and the Djembas have you?

There are insults and insults but that is not just below the belt that is below the kneecaps.
